Forecasting Failures Are Costly: Heres How To Fix Them
Speaker: Dave Sackett
Traditional budgeting and forecasting methods can no longer keep pace with today’s rapidly evolving business environment.

Ways to know the conference you are involved in is being held in Louisiana: The Starbucks in the hotel complements its assortment of sugar-free syrups with a half-dozen liqueurs to add to your coffee. The morning break at the conference offered only Bloody Mary's and another alcohol-laden drink. Just a good in-my-face reminder of the different norms and customs one may need to get accustomed to when stepping into others' worlds.
